Message from our Principal

Our Lady of Loretto School has been an essential part of the Novato community since 1959. We provide a rigorous faith-based academic curriculum that focuses on educating the whole child. Our focus is providing each child with the new challenges through a variety of teaching strategies designed to nurture intellectual curiosity and to prepare our students to be 21st Century learners. We nurture the development of each individual student’s journey in becoming compassionate, humble, responsible, and involved spiritual thinkers ready to be life-long learners in Christ.

Through the partnership with our parish, we have recently upgraded our Parish Hall and our playground grass area. Our parish hall has received a new floor with sporting lines put on for basketball and volleyball along with a brand new kitchen. Our playground grass area has been replaced with turf that will help us be water conscience and allow the students a wonderful place to play.

I am blessed to be a part of Our Lady of Loretto. There is no better place for teachers to teach or for students to learn. Our faculty is dedicated to the social, emotional, spiritual, and cognitive development of all students. I thank everyone for begin a part of this dedicated community who honors our parents as the first and primary teachers of our students. Our administration, pastor, faculty, and staff are dedicated to working in partnership to instill an educational environment that is centered on Christ and family.

I encourage and welcome those of you looking for a place to call home to stop by and see for yourselves what the OLL advantage is all about.

God Bless,

Mrs. Kathleen KraftPrincipal
